A Couple of Gorgeous Summer Days

Monday/Tuesday, August 22/23, 2016
What a wonderful gift we've had the last two days!!!!!!  Gorgeous deep blue skies, a few fluffy white clouds and temperatures in the 60s in the morning and low 80s in the afternoon with humidity down around the mid 40s!!!!  Now this is what I call perfect summer days!

Ken and I have simply enjoyed going for walks, listening to the birds, and watching the kids have fun out on their bikes, playing on the equipment and swimming.  It has been so pleasant we can sit outside and read or chat.  In fact, we've spent a fair amount of time talking with several of the people camping across from us: Lynn and Bill, Char and Gary, and Sandy.  All their flowers enhance our view as we look out toward the lake and the huge willow trees plus huge expanse of super green grass now that we've had some rain which has taken away the brown stuff.

Dean gave me a bunch of tomatoes from his plants when we were there on Sunday so today I've tried making tomato soup following a recipe I found on All Recipes.  We also enjoyed  a bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich with those super good home grown tomatoes.

Ah, the sweet joys of summer.
